So it comes time for everyone to vote. We know who Rob and Pep are voting for, so it all comes down to Ron. Well, VH1, possibly understanding the concept of foresight, unlike Ron, gave each voter two chips, each with a name of the two possible people you could vote out. This meant that Ron couldn't vote for himself, so he pretty much started shitting his pants. Pep voted, Rob voted, and Ron just sat there, staring blankly. Finally, he voted, and out came the results. Rob was going home.
Rob hears this, stands up and looks at Ron with his hands on his hips. You can see on Ron's face how uncomfortable he is. That's what's funny about Ron. Put a group of naked women for him to have sex with in front of him, he's cool as ice. Make him reluctantly backstab a friend, with possible physical harm as retribution, and he's incredibly uncomfortable.
Actually, I felt really bad for Ron. It was a purely strategic move, and maybe Rob shouldn't have put so much faith in someone's word on a reality TV competition. Especially if it's Ron's word, because he may have just made up some rules that allow him to win the game in his head.
Ron explained that he was gonna put his own name in, but they wouldn't let him. So Ice, calmly, walks back to his room, picks him drumset up and starts throwing it out where everyone is sitting, all while yelling at Ron. If he wanted to give everyone a drum solo before leaving, he could have carried his drums a lot gentler than he did.
Hey, wheres Rob going?
Hey, what's Rob doing?
Oh this can't be good....
RON LOOK OUT!
POOR INGA! She's so scurred!
My best Mary Tyler Moore: "Ohhhhh Roooooob"
Im Juss Keedeen!
Actually, I'm not even sure he WANTED to give everyone a drum solo. Because he broke his drums. Not satisfied with that minimal destruction, he started whipping them at the set. He was busting light bulbs in the lighted "Vegas" background, then he'd walk over, get in Ron's face, and repeat "I swear on my mother's grave!" Ron was trying to explain, but he might as well have been trying to explain the fine art of the money shot to a baby; it just wasn't being registered.
After what seemed like at least two minutes of destruction, members of the crew finally started to try to keep Rob from doing anything more. Kind of. At one point Rob took off like he was going to run back and possibly do something to Ron, but the crew did manage to prevent that. Hey, Rob, remember when you said it was just a game? Glad that stayed in the front of your mind. Before this season I had no idea that Rob had the maturity of a selfish two-year-old, so at least I learned that.
So Ron was just trying to explain that he had this whole crazy scenario worked out in his head where he was going to pull a quick one on the Fame Games. Traci was PISSED though, and pretty ruthless. She said to Ron, "Whatever you tried to do, it worked, so you got your wish. You've just lost Rob as a friend." Damn. Way to not kick a guy when he's down Traci, especially when it's EXACTLY WHAT YOU WANTED TO HAPPEN.
With Rob out, it was time for Back to Reality. And, rather than give everyone a break, the producers decided to proceed as planned and play the game on the now-defunct set. I will say that Rob did a pretty great job of destroying that set though.
Ron complained about still being shocked about what had just happened. Like someone almost causing you physical harm, being accused of being a liar, and losing a friend has ever caused anyone emotional distress. Don't be such a baby Ron.
The game this week was called Stick it in Google, which I immediately assumed Ron would excel at. Well, not quite. There was a list of hits from a search on Google containing each celebrity's name (or most famous character, or stage name). The job of the players was to guess which house member had which number of hits, and they started at the bottom.
At #10, everyone guessed Andrea Lowell, which seemed fair, because no one knows who she is. It was CC, so they guessed her name again at #9, but it was Traci. Traci told us that she's gotten more than 27 million hits on MSN, but since it was Google, she'll let it slide. She's so web-saavy. And horribly, horribly wrong.

Rob obviously went over the deep end in this episode. I understand that he felt betrayed. But, he shouldn't have put too much faith in Ron seeing how it is a competition. And he also didn't need to react like a loon. Besides, it's just a game. He'll make more than $100,000 anyway with that new CD he's putting out....YEAH RIGHT! Actually, maybe Rob was so mad because some of that $100,000 would have kept his electricity on next month.
Also, between her & Ron, Traci deserved to win. Ron looked like a hobo at that final challenge. What was he thinking?

couldn't we all have saved those 11 hours (or however long this horrible show was) by just flashing the "top 10 google searches" right when they got in the house? isn't that a pretty good indicator of fame? i don't know, just sayin. jesus, that show was horrible.

Great recap of a horrible show. Why did I watch that crap? Better yet - why did I then watch the marathon of that crap all over again?
I think I need help.
I hope Traci uses the money to buy a better weave so she can stop with the damned combover.

So thrilled that Traci won and not that fat windbag Ron Jeremy! Agreed with the poster above, Miss Bingham does need a new weave, or at least that rat's nest cleaned.
I think Mr. Ice wants his own reality show on VH1...you laugh now, but I bet its in the works.....
I just didn't want Andrea Blowhole to win.

It was clear that Robin Leach was trying to help Peppa on her last chance at the google game. He was like "PEPPA, you really need this next answer PEPPA. If you don't PEPPA, then you will go home PEPPA PEPPA PEPPA." And then... she lost.
BACKSTABBER!!!

Traci is a delusional hypocrite. She kept bitching and moaning the entire game, then in the end she was all high and mighty. Also, she really thinks she's an A-list star!
I really hate Vanilla Ice. He should have followed through on one of his numerous threats and gone home. And, he's plain nuts, which I'm sure he mistakes for being interesting.
He would have done the exact same thing to Ron, had he been in the same position. (pun intended)It's a competition, for crying out loud.

Hey Anonymous,
It made me laugh out loud to read your post. I live near Fort Myers, Florida and Robert Van Winkle is indeed our local weather man. And he really does do that sign language thing every night. He did kick ass during Hurricane Charley, going against the opinion of the National Weather Service to tell us that he thought the hurricane was turning toward us. He was right. Love that guy!
